A Journal is a book in which business transaction are entered in chronological order. A record of a single business transaction is called a Journal entry. Every journal entry is supported by a voucher, evidencing the related transaction. A Voucher is a document containing the details of financial transaction. Examples include sales invoice, purchase invoice, pay slip, rent receipt and so on. In a journal, several entries are recorded, each of which are unrelated to the other. To know the total effect of all the transaction, each journal entry must be moved/transferred to the account it relates to. An Account is a statement of trans action affecting any particular asset, liability, expense or income. A ledger is the book in which all the accounts are maintained. A chart of accounts is a list of all account titles used by an organization. The chart of account of the business shows the categorization and grouping of its accounts. 1.5.2 Posting Posting is the process by which information about transaction is transferred or moved to an account. 1.5.3 Accounting period A regular period of time, such as a quarter or a year, for which a financial statement is generated is called an Accounting period. 1.5.4 Trial Balance A Trial Balance is a list of the balance of all ledger accounts. It is prepared after all the transactions are entered in the journal, journal entries posted to the ledger and the ledger accounts balanced. It is the sum of balance of all real, personal and nominal accounts of the organization. A detailed trial balance has columns. For    Account Name Debit balance Credit balance 1.6 Financial statements. A financial statements is a periodic report prepared from the accounting records of a company. Financial statements include the P/L statements (or income statements) the balance sheet, and the cash flow statements. Financial statements are usually compiled on a quarterly basis or on an annual basis. For reporting convenience, the P/L account is divided into. Trading account Profit and loss account The Profit and loss statements can be further classified into two levels.  Gross profit - Gross profit is arrived at, after considering the cora activities It is expressed as Gross profit= Net sales – Cost of sales  Net profit - Net profit is arrived at, after considering the other administrative costs incurred for the period. It is expressed as Net profit= (Gross profit + other income) – (Selling and Administrative Expenses + depreciation + Interest + Taxes + other expenses). 1.6.1 Trading Account. The Trading Account is prepared to arrive at the gross profit earned by the organization over a specified period. This helps the organization to arrive at the cost of its core activity and calculate the direct profit from its operations. 1.6.2 Profit and Loss Account. The Profit and Loss Account gives the Net Profit earned by the company. After considering all other incomes and expenses incurred over a period. This helps the company monitor and control the costs incurred and improve its efficiency. In other words, profit and loss statement shows the performance of the company in terms of profit or losses over a specified period. A key element of the Profit and Loss Account, and one that distinguishes it from a balance sheet, is that the amounts shown on the statements represent transaction over a period of time, while the items represented on the balance sheet show information as on a specific date. All revenue and expenses account are closed once the profit and loss account is prepared. They will not have on opening balance for the next accounting cycle. 1.6.3 Balance Sheet The Balance sheet is a statement that summaries assets and liabilities of a business. The excess of assets over liabilities is the net worth of a business. The balance sheet provides information that helps in assessing a company’s.  Long - term financial strength.  Efficient day - to - day working capital management.  Asset portfolio.  Sustainable long - term performance. The balances of all the real, personal and nominal (capital in nature) accounts are transferred from trial balance to balance sheet and grouped under the major heads of assets and liabilities. The balance sheet is complete when the net profit/loss is transferred from the profit and loss account. 1.7 Points to Remember.  Accounting is a comprehensive system to collect, analyses and communicate financial information.  Double Entry accounting is a system of recording transactions in a way the maintains the equality of the accounting equation.  The three types of account maintained for transactions are real accounts, personal accounts and nominal accounts.  Entry is the organizational unit for which accountings records are maintained.  Journal entry is a record of a singal business transaction.  Voucher is a document evidencing the details of a financial transaction.  Ledger is a book in which accounts are maintained.  Trial balance is a list of the balance of all the ledger accounts.  Profit and loss statements shows the performance of the company in terms of profits or losses made by it over a specified period.  Balance sheet gives an overview of the financial position of a company as on a specific date. Lesson 2 2.1 Service organization. Service is defined as work done for others in lieu of a payment or a price. Service do not have a physical from or substance. An organization providing service is called a service organisation . 2.1.1 Nature of a service organisation. Service organisation provide their service at the point of consumption by the customer. Thus such organizations could be severely hit on price if there is a demand dip at the time of production. Service are perishable. So, the pressure on the service organisation to provide services is more than that on a manufacturing organisation or a trading organisation. Customer interaction is greater in service organisation that in manufacturing or trading organisation. Employees help to create the “experience” which is vital to the success of a service organisation. In a service organisation, services are usually provided by people, not machines. So, service organisation are more labour intensive than manufacturing organisation. Customer goodwill is an intangible assets for service organisation, which can be destroyed quickly. There is often ho way to correct “bad” service. 2.1.2 Accounting in a service organisation. Customer Services Payment of bills Service organisation. Figure 2.1 Accounting in a service organisation.     The organisation maintains regular books of account. Most service organization does not deal in inventory and therefore, do not need to maintain inventory record. They do not follow a standard pricing policy for all customers at all times. Usually, performance is evaluated at the end of a market cycle. Thus, the input cost and revenue earned for a periodic cycle do not reflect on performance. Sometimes, the service may be rendered partially, but the billing is done only when the service is completed.  In a service organisation, the focus, in an environment, is on effective utilisation of human resources. 2.2 Trading organisation. An organisation involved in the process of buying and selling is called a trading organisation. Trading is a defined as an exch-ange of goods for a fixed market price or a perceived value. Traders act as channels that provide goods produced by the manufacturers at a convenient palace, price, pack (quantity) and time to the consumers. 2.2.1 Nature of a Trading organisation.   The actual market price is established and is valid for a short period based on the current supply and demand. The value of the product is determined by The customer’s expectation of quality The customer’s expectation of convenience in relation to the actual amount paid for it. The trader deals with goods. He repacks them, if necessary but does not process them. A trading organisation has to continually keep track of market demand and ensure that inventory planning is done to take advantage of demand whenever it arises. Different customers may be charged different prices by varying the percentage of discount on the price list.    2.2.2 Accounting in a Trading organisation. collections Custome r Demand Trading organisation Inventory based on customer demand Sales Arrival of stock Figure 2.2 Accounting in a Trading organisation. The trader must keep track of stock availability, customer requirement, cost of procurement and market changes. The accountant in a trading organisation has to maintain up dated inventory records a part from regular accounting. 2.3 Manufacturing organisation. The process of transforming raw materials (inputs) into finished goods (output) for consumers, or for further processing by others in the channel is called manufacturing. The success of a manufacturing organisation depends on its ability to carry out this process, effectively and profitable. Manufacturing organisation can be classified according to the production processes they undertake. These may range from extremely complex processes to simple ones. An accountant in any manufacturing organisation must understand the kind of organisation that he works for. Compared to service and trading organisation a manufacturing organisation must consider more factors to define its style of The questions that a manufacturing would want answers for are.   Should the product be a standard one or a customized one? If customization of product takes place, Will it be manufactured by just reassembling different sub – components ? Will changes be implemented at the process level to arrive at the customer acceptance level ? What will be the number of orders and order volume based on the above combination ? What will be the time required by the production team from the receipt of order to, production considering available resources ? What will be the requirement lifecycle (timeline from placement of the order to the receipt of goods.) as agreed by both the customer and manufacturer, considering the demand and competition for the product in the market ?    After finding suitable answers to these questions, the manufacturer, may decide to.    Product goods and stock them for sales. Product goods against customer orders. Keep sub - components at a strategic location, to assemble the final product and deliver it to the customer in time. The above list is not exhaustive or mutually exclusive. 2.3.1 Nature of a manufacturing organisation.     The production cycle and the market cycle need net match. Usually, the entire cycle of procurement, production, distribution and realization is longer as compared to other types of organisation. A high level of standardisation is possible. Scientific methods can be used to reduce the production cost, which forms a major part of the total cost of the product. 2.3.2 Accounting in a manufacturing organisation. Manufacturing organisation Inventory planning Demand Working capital management Market Figure 2.3 Accounting in a manufacturing organisation.      Finished goods A company needs to account for inventories like raw materials, work-in-process (W/P) and finished goods to arrive at the profit made for the period. Change in inventory valuation method change the profit made during the period. Accounting in manufacturing organisation requires more planning, preparation and scheduling as compared to accounting in trading and service organisation. Calculating cost of sales is relatively complex in manufacturing organisation as compared to that of trading organisation. Research and development costs in manufacturing organisation are relatively higher as compared to R&D costs in trading organisation. 4.1 Features of Tally.

Cost Categories Let us take an example. 1. Create three cost categories named Departments, Executives and Projects. 2. Create three cost centres named Marketing, Manufacturing and Finance under the Cost Category Departments, Create three Cost Centres Salesman A, Salesman B and Salesman C under the Cost Category Executives. Create three Cost Centres Airports, Roads and Buildings under the Cost Category Projects. The structure for creating Cost Categories and Cost Centres are shown below. Cost Categories Cost Centres Departments Marketing Manufacturing Finance Executives Salesman A Salesman B Salesman C Projects Airports Roads Buildings You can specify a cost category to allow allocation of only revenue items or items of both revenue and capital nature. In this example, allow allocation of items of both revenue and capital in nature for both Departments and Projects categories and items of only revenue in nature for Executives. Now, salesman A, incurs conveyance expenses. If he has incurred it for marketing, allocate this amount to the cost centres marketing and his own cost centre salesman A. (you would do it while entering a payment voucher debiting conveyance and crediting cash). If the salesman A now incurs expense for the project Buildings, you would allocate to the cost centres salesman A and Buildings. You may allocate an expense to one or more cost centres and it is not essential to always allocate to all cost centres. An expense can remain unallocated to other cost centres. In case cost categories are not enabled, you will be able to allocate the expense to either building cost centre under projects or salesman A under Executives and not to both. In such a case, you would not obtain the third dimension. You may not have cost categories activated if you do not need to without cost categories, you will allocate the ledger amount to only one set of cost centre, and not to parallel sets. Hence, you would allocate the conveyance expense to salesman A only and not to both salesman A and project buildings. You can allocate the expense partly to salesman A and party to project building that adds up to the total amount. This information will not enable you to know now much salesman A spent for the project buildings. Note: you do not allocate transaction to cost categories y allocate them to cost centres only. The concept is like group / ledger account classification. Cost centre allocations have to be done in pop-up sub-screen in the main voucher entry screen. The sub-screen pops up after the amount field pertaining to the ledger for which cost centres have been activated. Hence, the following is the sub-screen for the ledger Conveyance amount in a payment voucher. Cost Allocations for: Conveyance Upto: Rs. 1.000.00 Dr Cost category Name of cost centre Executives Salesman A Salesman B Project Buildings Amount 600.00 400.00 1.000.00 1.000.00 Departments Marketing 1.000.00 Applying Cost centres to Ledger - Account Activate Cost centre for the ledger Account that are used in voucher entry. In this example, make a payment voucher for the amount Rs. 1,00,500. Hence, enable cost centres for the ledger conveyance. 1. 2. 3. Go to Gateway of Tally select Accounts info > ledger > Alter Select the ledger Conveyance from the List of ledger. Set Cost centre are Applicable to Yes. If the ledger Conveyance is not available create a new one with Cost centres enabled. Ledger Alteration Name : Conveyance (alias) : ABC Company (C+M) Total op. Bal.

Allocation is dynamic and done at one stage only, at the time of making voucher entries. For example, make a payment voucher for Conveyance Go to Gateway of Tally > Accounting voucher > F5 payment The voucher entry screen, appears. Debit the amount to the conveyance ledger. Cost centre allocations have to be done in pop-up sub-screens in the main voucher entry screen. A sub-screen pops up after the amount field pertaining to the ledger for which cost centres have been activated. The sub-screen for the ledger conveyance and in a payment voucher appears as shown below. Cost Allocations for: Conveyance Upto: Rs. 1,00,500,00 Dr Cost category Name of cost centre Executives Salesman A Salesman B Project Buildings Amount 50,000.00 50,500.00 1,00,500,00 1,00,500,00 Departments Marketing 1,00,500,00 Price - List introduction Price Lists are useful for orders and invoice. An up-to-date price lists helps in decisions at even the lower levels of the organisation and quickens the sales process. Tally assists in creating guantity based pricing with complex discount structure. Price lists are available only for inventory items and hence the feature is available only if inventory and invoicing are activated for the company. You can have one or more price lists. More than one price list is required when you have different price structures or levels for different purposes, usually, different groups of customers requiring different discounts or dealing in different products. Price Levels Customers can be assigned to specific price lists, called price levels in Tally. So that only the relevant price is used during entry of orders and invoices. Before you begin creating price lists, you should decide whether you want different price levels. In a running business, you will already know that. You might want different price levels for various reasons; e.g. different types of customers like wholesale customers, export customers and so on. Each customers type could have a different discount structure. Write down on a piece of paper the price levels/bands that are reguired. Enable and Create Price Lists Ensure that the company has been set up for Accounts with Inventory.

Alter price levels names To alter the name of a price level, go through the same procedure as enable and create price levels. Assigning Ledger Account to Price Levels. When the Price List feature is activated, it enables an option in party (debtor and creditor) ledger accounts where the account can be assigned or tagged to a specific Price Levels. An account can be assigned to only one Price Levels. If the ledger accounts already exist and you wish to assign them to a Price Levels, you have to alter the ledger account. If it is a new ledger account, the option to select a Price Level will be the same and therefore, we will take alteration of an account as an example. Gateway of Tally > Account info > Ledger > Alter(single) Select the ledger account, e.g. cp Limited Name : CP Limited (alias) : Under : Kenyan customers (Afrlcan customers) Price Levels Currency of Ledger Pricing Level Applicable Maintain balance bill by bill Cost centre are applicable Inventory values are affected : Rs. : ?

You may assign other ledger accounts in this way. It is not Mandatory to carry out the assigning activity before creating Price Lists. It can be done even alter Price Lists are created. The Pricing Level can be changed to reflect changed circumstances. For this, simply alter the ledger account and select a different Pricing Level option. How to Create and Use Price Lists. Gateway of Tally > Inventory Info > Price List If the Price List option does not appear, confirm the activation procedure given in the Central Sales Tax Introduction Central Sales Tax (CST) is a tax on sales of goods levied by the central Government of India. CST is applicable only in the case of inter-state sales and not on sales made within the state or import / export of sales. Inter-state sales is when a sale or purchase constitutes movement of goods from one state to another, Accordingly, Consignments to agents or transfers of goods to branch or other offices is not a sale as per the CST Act. CST is payable in the state where the goods are sold and movement commences. The tax collected is retained by the state in which the tax is collected. CST is administered by sales tax authorities of each state. Thus, the state Government sales tax officer who assesses and collects total (state) sales tax also assesses and collects CST. Inter – state sale An inter-state sale takes place when a sale or purchase. Leads to movement of goods from one state to another state. Is achieved by the transfer of documents of title while the goods are being moved from one state to another state. Example 1: “A” in Andhra Pradesh sells and delivers goods to “B” in Karnataka. Example 2: “A” in Maharashtra delivers goods to “B” in Gujarat. “B” sells it to “C” in Gujarat by transferring the document of title during the goods movement from Maharashtra to Gujarat. Note: Goods that are sold within a state but while transporting travel through state is not considered inter-state sales. Rate of CST In an inter-state sale to a registered dealer against from C the rate of CST is 4% or local sales tax rate which ever is lower. If under the local sales tax law, sale or purchase is exempt from CST the CST is nil. In an inter-state sale to government against from D the rate of CST is 4% or local sales tax rate whichever is lower. Rate of CST in case of inter-state sale of declared goods without form C or D is twice the rate of tax applicable to the local sale or purchase of such goods in that state. Rate of CST in case of other goods (i.e. non-declared goods) is 10% or the applicable local sales tax of that state which ever is higher. CST Features in Tally State specific CST Return. Tracking of forms: o o o o o o C forms – (Issuable/Issued/Receivable/Received). E1, E2 forms – Issued against sale of goods in transit by the buyer. F forms – For consignment sales and Branch Transfer. H forms- For sale in course of exports. D forms- For sales to Govt organisations. I forms- For sale to SEZ customers. Reminder Letters/Covering letters to customers. Auto Fill option. Service Tax Information on service tax Currently the rate of service tax on all the taxable services is 12%. Presently, service tax 8*56*969ZV A person/firm providing a service that comes under the service tax category has to pay service tax. Service tax is to be shown separately in the invoice and is payable based on the payment realized and not on the total amount shown in the invoice Similarly, when you buy a service that falls under service tax category, you avail service tax credit based on the payment made. So, you pay service tax on the services that you sell and get credit on the service tax payable when you buy a service. Adjust Credit ? While you pay service tax on sale of service that come under the service tax category. You can adjust service tax credit availed on purchase of service (Buyer). This deduction is called adjusting credit against service tax. The different between the service tax that you have to pay for selling service and the service tax credit on purchases that can be adjusted is the payable service tax. Service tax (sales) that is adjustable against service tax credit (purchases) is also called availing input credit. Let us look at an example. ABC Courier Company buys telephone service from 123 Telephone Company ABC courier sells courier services 123 Telephone Company ABC courier service ABC courier has to pay service tax of Rs.250 / for service provided Customers Service tax paid on services provided (B) Service tax credit on payment to telephone company (A) Total service tax payable by ABC company courier (B-A) Adjusting 100% credit & 20% credit If you input service (purchase) can be directly related to the output service. (sales) then you can use 100% credit adjustment on the service tax payable for example. If you are providing a consultancy service over the phone then you can use the input credit from the telephone charges to adjust against 100% of the service tax payable on your consultancy service. If the input service is not solely used for the output service, then 20% credit adjustment is applicable. Input service tax credit can be adjusted to both output service tax and output cess (surcharge on tax). But input cess credit can be adjusted only towards output cess. Assessable Value Service tax is calculated on the assessable value. The assessable value is the service charge value minus abatement and expenses. Abatement The government has given a deduction on the value to be considered for service tax on a few categories of services. For example, some categories of services include material value. A caterer has to procure material to prepare food products and sell services. Service tax is charged on the total amount for the service and does not include the rate of the materials procured. Hence a deduction’s provided. This deduction from the service charges to be considered for service tax is called abatement. Abatement is either percentage of the service charges or a lump sum value. Example: = Rs. 250/= Rs. 145/= Rs. 105/- a. b. c. Charge on service If an abatement of 30% is applied, then abatement Here, the assessable value is (a-b) Therefore, service tax@10% on Rs. 7.000/- Rs. 10.000/Rs. 3.000/Rs. 7.000/Rs. 700/- Expenses Expenses can be deducted from the total service charge to get the taxable amount. E.g. a technical consultant might travel to different locations with respect to work. The invoice is prepared as consultant and the travel expenses are included in the total service charges. If supported by records, you can deduct the travel expense from the total service charges to drive the assessable value on which service tax is applicable. Payment of Service Tax.
